About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The Air Force Research Laboratory issued a delivery order to Azimuth Corporation, a women-owned small business, on September 15, 2022, for materials research and survivability studies under the Materials Research and Survivability Studies II (MARSS II) contract with a ceiling value of $19.955 million and ultimate completion date of December 9, 2027.

MARSS II is a single-award indefinite delivery contract with the Air Force Research Laboratory supporting photonic materials, optical technology, structured materials processing, and effects mitigation research. Place of performance is Beavercreek Township, Ohio. The order operates on a cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing structure.

The delivery order funds research across materials characterization, fabrication, and device development for directed energy applications, including anti-resonant hollow-core fiber (AR-HCF) geometries for high-power laser transmission, photonic crystal surface-emitting lasers (PCSELs) for directed energy and active imaging, and dynamic optical response materials to mitigate adversarial directed energy effects. Work encompasses modeling and simulation of transmission and loss properties, characterization and optimization of materials for low-loss transmission and durability, and experimental demonstrations supporting design validation and performance verification.

Subcontractors include Leidos (YAG cladding deposition and dopant integration), Pennsylvania State University (anti-resonant hollow-core fiber materials research and characterization), Teledyne Scientific & Imaging (soft semiconductor sample preparation and polishing), and a multi-vendor team of specialized suppliers including Nlight Inc. for pump laser diodes, Wright State University for laboratory space and facilities, Raytheon Company for photonic component trade studies, Carillon Technologies Management Corporation for next-generation small satellite technology components, and academic and equipment vendors supplying characterization and test instrumentation.
